    Regulator wrote:I'm not saying cheap trash centres to somehow insult their potential ability. I'm saying it because for fantasy purposes specifically they are basement, or basically basement, price, unproven centres compared to the premium options. Every year, we mostly all do it, the correct price at centre at the start of the year is the cheapest price unless there's an out of position premium option.

    A decent score week to week from a 250k investment in a bloke who has barely played NRL as you point out is not a reasonable expectation. What they put up last week is the realistic expectation each week until they've established themselves, hopefully as good performers. Along the way, there's going to be these 18 20 point outings sprinkled throughout. The hope is at some point on that journey they can put a couple of good games on the board and get us done money to help enable us to go elsewhere.

    They're bottom price dart throws that we hope can make some money while we wait to be in a position to get a proper solution to the position that is always the shittiest to deal with. One week in, we have a couple more points to consider. Bird (personally don't see the need to rush it) Hammer (if you think he's turned a corner) or Mbye (because omg he's a hooker now). Otherwise the centre landscape is really no different to when you picked your team last week.




    I am glad you clarified this because #CentresLivesMatter ✊

    I’m dumping Talau to do such a thing, but I’m not sure about it myself so wouldn’t recommend to others. There’s a likely scenario where they end up averaging quite similar, and I heavily doubt HTF becomes a CTR keeper, but I’m doing it anyway. I’m justifying it by telling myself that I didn’t fully know/appreciate/understand HTF’s usability in the CTR position in the preseason.

    If I had Preston I’d be loving last weeks minutes and am assuming he may be a trade in sooner than later.

    Katoa is a big question mark. I personally see half decent scores and small price rises, but to be fair, probably nothing that needs to be held, in my opinion.

    As for the Mbye chat, you madmen. Acting like Liddle doesn’t exist and Mbye has ever been anything but a terrible fantasy option. Smile But who knows, maybe 2023 is his year?

    Yeah, I’m doing the same and whilst I wouldn’t say I’m sure, I definitely think it’s a fair chance that it could not turn out so great.

    Got a late call up last week, and Arrow missing this week. How long will he start for?
    Ford a touch out of my price range, so looking at CHee-Kam or BMM for cheapies

    Alternatively I can just keep running with Isaiya Katoa, but it seems that even if he makes cash it won't be much. Maybe if he goes on a try scoring run or something
    Arrow and Host due back round 4.

    I liked him for a cheeky punt, but Jed this week was enough to turn me off, let alone who’s to return in coming weeks. Surely Host has an impact when he returns?

    I think Host would start which pushes Chee Kam back to bench. But who knows. I think Host is favoured though but if Cheeks goes well next two weeks Host could initially come back off the bench…. Anyway I’m getting Carty mate.

    I have two juicy trades I’m looking at in Uto to Carty and Cheese to Tohu. I think I’ll pull the trigger. I know Tohu won’t get 80mins every week but he should still get 65-70mins. Tohu no origin as well and plays rounds 13 and 19. This would mean I persist with shit centres for now!

    Host will take Chee Kam's spot in round 4. He was always intended to play on that edge until he got injured.

    Cartwright and BMM are better cashies IMO.

    Looking forward to this round, looking for a bit more clarity on all the questions I have:

    Latrell - How much will the PCL issue affect his fantasy output?
    Hopgood - Was round 1 score an anomaly?
    Wilton - Is he worth a punt with Graham out for a month?
    Walsh - Will he join the WFB elite this season (50+ avg)?
    Collins - Is he going to keep producing 50+ scores with the extra mins available
    Dolphins - Was round 1 a flash in the pan?
    BSmith - Worth keeping? How are his ribs?
    Dragons - Is there any fantasy gold in the Dragon's lair?

    I think he’s in for a big year too. S. Burgess has told him to add a bit more aggression to his game.

    Thoughts on my potential trades mate? Uto down to a cashie in Carty. I feel Uto will be a slow burn. And Cheese who I don’t think is a keeper up to a keeper in Tohu?

    No idea on Uto, I am holding Cheese for what its worth to early to judge his role yet.

    If you could afford Ford (alliteration!) would you still pick him?

    If BMM is any good, he's my out too for the couple of weeks. Happy to trade IKatoa, but need a decent cow to make it worthwhile really.

    I don't know how much money you have or whether you already have a gun hooker but if you don't have one, I would get one ahead of Tohu, otherwise go ahead.

    I'm running the gauntlet with Boyd so I can get both Carty Party and Hammer this week, leaving me 188k to put towards getting a hooker by the time Boyd has his bye in round 5.

    You want Ford mate. Grab him.

    If he loses place you can drop down to BMM if he gets a decent role
    If he continues starting on the edge for 60-80 should make some good cash for you

    Hey Beth I have Grant at hooker and I have Haas in my mids with Hopgood and Cheese pre trades.

    Don’t mind those trades of yours.
